Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2281: In the midst of adversity

West of Jiangling, Fifty Miles, Yangtze River, Meihuizhou.

This is a sandbank with a radius of about three or four miles in the center of the Yangtze River. It is formed by the accumulation of sediment in the Yangtze River. Over time, such a small Jiangxinzhou Island has been formed, just like the Sangluozhou Island in Huankou near Jiankang. The water of the Taotao River is divided into two by this sandbar here, becoming the south water and the north water, rushing eastward.

On the north water, a medium-sized ship comes upstream, which is quite different from the basic height of a normal ship. The front end of this ship is obviously lower, as if a ballast stone was moved to the front. The reason for the situation is that there is a huge hill-like fat sitting on the front deck, dressed in dragon robes, like a pile of shaking Roshan, isn't it Huan Xuan?

The emperor of Chu, who was still invincible a while ago, has lost all his power and prestige at this moment, his hair is scattered, and he is only leaning on a jade jade hosta on top of his head, barely maintaining a bun that is about to dissipate completely, so that he will not let him. Distribute thoroughly. There are bloodshot eyes in his eyes, and his face is full of dust because he is riding a horse all the way, and he is washed by sweat or tears, leaving a trail of marks. It looks like a loess plateau with thousands of gullies. Ridiculous and funny.

Huan Sheng, who was less than five years old, dressed in gorgeous silk clothes, stood timidly behind Huan Xuan. This prince of Chu, who is usually respected and dignified, didn’t know what had happened at this moment. He only knew that he was sent from the palace. The city picked it up, and then hurriedly in a scream of killing, he was hugged by his father on the horse, and ran all the way to the ferry. Then he boarded the boat and sailed down the river. This is the first time this kid has done this. I really felt that the sword and the shadow of the sword was by his side, and most of the screams and tears were used up on the road. Now he is tired and hungry, but seeing the appearance of the father, he dare not speak again. A word.

Yu Yizhi walked up from behind and saluted Huan Xuan: "Your Majesty, we should be safe now, and there will be no anti-thief chasing after him. It's just that we rushed too quickly and lost their ship with King Xin'an (Huan Qian). Contacted. Now I don’t know if they are safe."

Huan Xuan murmured, "Where is the other person?"

Yu Yizhi shook his head: "Bian Shizhong lost contact with us when he was in Jiangling City. Maybe he was stuck in the city. When he boarded the boat from Jiangfengdu, he was not in either of the boats."

Sitting on the side of a forty-year-old black fat middle-aged man who was Huan Xuan’s cousin, Chu State Jingzhou Governor Huan Shikang, said coldly: “I’m afraid, our Servant Bian attacked your Majesty. The mastermind! The assassin was the coachman he brought!"

Huan Xuan's expression changed, and he scolded, "Shi Kang, be careful! Jingzu has always been loyal to me and will never betray me!"

Huan Shikang sneered and said, "Yin Zhongwen was more loyal than him before? What happened? Seeing his majesty's defeat, he hijacked Wang Shen'ai and went to the Beijing Eight Thieves. I'm afraid that Bian Fanzhi had the same idea. It’s just that his heart is darker, not only wants to hold Brother Sima Dezong, but also wants his majesty’s life. Your majesty, the minister has said long ago that only our Huan family are blood thicker than water and true His own people, and others, may abandon us. Because of our Huan clan, there is no way out!"

Having said this, he looked at Yu Yizhi with an ugly face and a little panic, and smiled: "Of course, like General Yu who is still following us now, that is the true loyalty. Only when a disaster is approaching can we see the hearts of the people. Your Majesty, This time you should really understand who you are truly trustworthy."

Huan Xuan gritted his teeth: "No matter what, you are right. Now only our Huan family is worthy of trust. I just don't know if Zhen'er will recognize my uncle at this time."

Huan Shikang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, A Zhen is the most brave and eloquent general among the younger generation of our Huan family. You are not in Jingzhou these years, and I have been getting along with him, knowing his heart. He hates to serve your Majesty. Ah, it has been said that if your Majesty uses him, it will definitely be effective. This time the building will be full. If you can fully trust him and let him lead the battle, there is still hope of salvation in the situation. We can avoid the Beijing Eight Thieves temporarily. He turned to the west to attack Bashu, first lay a foundation, and then plan..."

Huanxuan suddenly got excited and laughed: "Don't worry, I have already made arrangements for Bashu. Where is the cultivation?"

There was a promise from the stern. A heroic general in his twenties came in armor. It was Mao Xiuzhi who gave a military salute to Huan Xuan: "Your Majesty, what is your purpose?"

Huan Xuan satisfactorily said to Mao Xiuzhi: "Yes, Captain Mao, at this time, you are still following me. From your body, I see the sincerity of the Mao family. The conditions agreed upon by me and the Mao family are still valid. It’s just that, maybe I need to drive Xichuan this time and live on the site of your Mao family for a while."

Mao Xiuzhi smiled calmly: "Your Majesty is the lord of the world. You can go anywhere you want. Even if you are frustrated in Jingzhou for a while, the grown-ups of my Mao family believe that sooner or later they will make a comeback~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Beifu Army cannot stay there forever. Jingzhou, as long as they leave, Jingzhou still belongs to your Majesty. If you don’t support your Majesty at this time, then Liu Yi and others will continue to move westward and attack my Xishu. If we don’t have Jingzhou as the Ping Fan, our Mao family will not How long will it last? The Mao family still understands the truth about the death of lips and teeth."

A smile appeared on Huan Xuan's face: "Then please run again, Captain Mao, and explain this to your adults. If possible, it is best to send 30,000 troops from Shu to guard the Baidi City, and I I will bring 10,000 elite troops from the Huanzhen Division, and join the Baidi with you. The Baidi is the gateway to Sichuan. The terrain is dangerous. As long as you hold on, the Beifu army will have nothing to do, and even Jingzhou can no longer stay."

Mao Xiuzhi said sternly: "Nuo, the uncle of the final general, Mao Gongbo, died in the post of the governor of Ningzhou. During the last peace talks, His Majesty allowed his coffin to return to Jiankang via Jiangling. It’s almost here, and I’ll set off at the end. Maybe I’m lucky enough to meet the Spirit Guardian fleet, so I can **** him to Huanzhen Army."

Huan Xuan nodded in satisfaction: "Go, come back early."

Mao Xiuzhi gave a military salute to Huan Xuan: "I will be back soon." Turning around, he jumped onto a small boat hanging beside the boat. He waved his hand, took two or three guards, and raised the sail and paddled. , Galloping away, and soon disappeared into the vast night.
